Among nineteenth-century novelists, there is probably none who
speaks so directly to the modern reader as Fedor Dostoevski. His
visions of alienation and terror have not lost their power to shake
our complacency even in this present age, hardened as it is to
violence and social decay. In this stimulating collection of
essays, a distinguished group of specialists in comparative
literature and the social sciences explores the themes and problems
with which Dostoevski struggled as both a writer and as a man and
assesses their continuing relevance to the modern world.
Encompassing a wide range of topics and perspectives, this
collection enriches our knowledge and appreciation of a writer
whose prophetic visions of alienation and explorations of the dark
side of the human psyche continue to fascinate readers and students
of the human condition.
